Scope in Cullman, Alabama

a bad one has many, because they weren't.

Out of scope by default are show organizer fees, booth lease costs paid directly to the show, staff travel and per diems, and any custom software or data-capture tooling the client runs on its own stack. Those stay on the client side and plug into the project through coordination, not rebilling.

What an engagement actually looks like

After the brief, the work turns to the building itself.

Install days are owned by a single on-site lead.

Throughout show hours, the on-site lead stays present.

Strike and closeout happen the same day.

Pricing and scheduling

Every project has the same cost drivers.

Lead time drives everything. Custom: 16 to 20 weeks. Rental: 8 to 12.

How project performance gets measured

Most programs in Birmingham are evaluated on lead-capture volume, meetings booked on the floor, and qualified-pipeline attribution after the show. The booth is a means to those numbers — it is not the number itself.

A week after the show, the booth's actual floor performance is already clearer than any pre-show projection. We document those observations alongside the technical closeout so the next cycle inherits real signal, not nostalgia.

What makes our work different

Trade Show Services of Birmingham keeps the work local.

Consistency across show dates is the other reason to hire local. The same crew that built the booth runs the install, knows the pack-out, and catches the small things — a missing hardware pack, a graphic edge that needs reseating, a storage crate routed to the wrong bay — without needing the client team to intervene.
